"President Barack Obama has signed a death knell for the Bill of Rights."

137. What is being said in all of the articles is that with this bill

Bush's policies have now been codified into law making it much more of a threat than it was. And rather than working on reversing those policies by vetoing the bill and leaning on Democrats to vote against it, this President has endorsed Bush's dangerous policies. There is really no argument against that. Which is probably why people are attacking the messenger rather discussing the issue.

When this country faced a similar issue during the McCarthy era the then president vetoed the bill which puts him on the right side of history, even though Congress passed it. This president by signing it, is on the wrong side of history. I have faith that this will be overturned some day. I just wish this president had been the one to at least veto it and show that Democrats take their oaths of office to defend and protect the Constitution seriously.
